Excellent- More about Istanbul: An Islamic History Guide

Publisher: Troubador Publishing
Discovering a city without understanding its history is akin to watching a blockbuster movie without a compelling storyline, all the stunning visuals and sets, but lacking the essential elements of dialogue, plot, and drama. While travel has become more accessible than ever, the art of storytelling has not kept pace. An incredible city like Istanbul loses its unique charm and becomes just another mosque, palace, or sultan.
This book seeks to breathe life into the stories behind the iconic locations. Each story is accompanied by a valuable lesson that can be applied to our own lives. Why is there a chain hanging over the entrance of the Blue Mosque? Why do the chandeliers of Grand Mosques often feature an ostrich egg at their center? Who was Fatih and what made him truly remarkable?
This book is designed as a guidebook that prioritizes the historical significance of the locations and the lessons we can draw from the past. If you desire to explore Istanbul in a way that nourishes your heart and mind as much as it captivates your eyes and taste buds, continue reading.
